"Oh Carmen, too much time has passed! I have longed to see a revival of Carmen Sandiego in some form on the Wii. And the release of The Magic School Bus on the DS makes this yet another piece of classic edutainment software that has resurfaced recently. 'The Lady Liberty Larceny' is the first in a proposed five-game downloadable series. However, in the current state that the first title is in, I'm very wary about succeeding episodes turning out the same way. Simply put, this so-called "comeback" of such a beloved educational franchise is far from enjoyable and I actually find it very upsetting that the developers didn't go to further lengths to fully capture what Carmen Sandiego has always been about." -- Wiiloveit.com
